First time on 4chan so here i have my sketchbook is only copies desu
Dont know much bout anything too technical, got my ass filtered by drawabox and now i mostly just copy stuff like the great late kim jung gi...
Also im mexican and a huge lupin fan so do with that as you will
>>
not a big deal since you're new here, but something like this doesn't deserve it's own thread. there are multiple threads in which you could post your sketchbook drawings, just look around and make your best judgement. also, for your own sake, try to take better photos.

Thread to study little boys. Post your art, discuss artists, and post resources related to the subject of cute little boys.

Rules:
>Do not take the bait or derail. Don't be a sperg.
>Only post SFW shota, link NSFW and suggestive from catbox. Don't post real life references.
>Don't fight about different male body types, shota. Nobody cares.
>No femboy/trans/traps/futa. Go to /salt/ for that.
>No tits, no coochies, no female body ratio.
>Don't sperg if a feminine male (not femboy) is posted, ignore if it's not your cup of tea, keep in mind the nature of stylization and simplification in anime and cartoon art styles before you choose to derail the thread, though crit is welcome like always.

Are graphic novels a dead industry? Do audiences connect with characters / stories better if a comic is released in weekly / monthly installments, rather than all at once?

On the contrary, floppy fans, people I know with “walls of long boxes”, nowadays excuse the fact that sometimes in an issue nothing fucking happens by saying that it’s part of a slow burn plot that will make sense in the trade. Which always makes me ask them why does it need a floppy release? Just release the whole story as a trade at once if that’s the intended way to read it.

kids and teens today don't have the mental faculties to enjoy a graphic novel anymore. Young adults are busy being bled dry by capitalism and don't have time to get interested in a New Thing when they are barely keeping their head above water. Millenials are all set in their ways and are wary of trying a new series, and will just read it online. We're cooked.

Sure, how can interacting only for the chance of farming clout ever have long term ramifications?

Sure, let's make a tiktok video where we copy a viral tiktok video. This is so original thinking and no one else will ever think of this

Your work is only suitable for shitty western cartoons that have to fit within the extremely limited bounds of shitty animation software (because anything other than noodle arms/legs and design with form and definition reveal its shittiness)
Throw out this dog shit and ‘style’ and make something that follows fundamentals or you will be completely ignored because your work is complete dog shit that only fits into some ‘toon boom’ tier crap, and that is not a good thing unless you wish to be competing with near slave labor artists from India or some other SE Asian country.

Fuck guys, you're convincing me to go back to my old pixel style, at least to test it out again. I'm just worried it's not polished/professional looking. Like it looks more amateurish

While we're here though, here's a drawing I did today. I think I managed to make better use of shape design
>>
>>7301439
I have to ask: what is shape design to you? Do you think it’s supposed to make a character both appealing and quick to draw? I’m asking because most people here have a different focus from yours.
>>
>>7301439
Glad you’re not disheartened, but I hope that you’ll drop the calarts (low effort modern cartoon design) aesthetic.

If you’re skipping fundies because it’s boring, then your work will remain at a standstill as it is right now because of your unwillingness to learn the things that actually give your art the qualities it needs to not only stand out, but to also look good and volumetric - rather than flat caricatures of reality. Most cartoonists know the fundamentals because they have to for this reason. You can’t skip the fundamentals.

Draw what you want *because of your knowledge*, not *in spite of your lack of it.*

>New here? Please read best practices.

1. Don't post too revealing works (especially porn). If you think it's too lewd, post a censored copy here and link to Catbox (https://catbox.moe/) or any off-site that hosts images for your works.

2. Keep it to 2D Anime/Cartoon characters only. Do not post child photo references (legal or otherwise), and do not talk about issues regarding real children.

3. It is recommended to let the thread reach page 6-7 before starting a new one. Use archived(moe) or warosu to retrieve the old threads.

It becomes more obvious if you use other sites. A lot of art communities have been flooded with the same question. What style is this? I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bot network that is farming a data set. I did a little bit of data annotation and I can see why asking artists in bulk to label and identify specific styles can help train models. People have started picking up on this and calling it out, but it's still pretty prominent. Dead internet theory is real bruh.

1. Art trades should be directed to the Verified Art Trade thread.

2. Critiquing designs, lore, and writing of characters and character designing are welcome.

3: Avoid off-topic discussions and DO NOT respond to bait posts.

4: Be sure to thank Drawfrens for their hard work as soon as you can, it's just common courtesy :^)

At the moment I am focused on drawing the characters of my original story while I alternate time writing the chapters.
I'm trying to design the characters to reflect his personality, interests and social role.

This is one of the recurrent characters.

>Model student poster girl at an elite private school.

>Ranked 11th highest scoring student. Hard Worker, but she is just a normal student. The first 10 ranks are occupied by the true natural geniouses.

>She likes to act classy and smug, she is actually Well-meaning, smart and self-confident, but with a snobbish know-it-all bossy personality. Try to force high standards on others, gets comically angry when things don't go her way.

>Proud to be part of the student committee. However, the other students make fun behind her back and consider her just an annoying fatass bootlicker. Has no real school friends.

>Likes imitation fashion jewelry.

She was originally supposed to be my own take on what Imu could have looked like but I basicly made a OC at this point with her. Her names Habib and shes the Ruler of the Desert my other OC Asenath comes from. Shes about 9,38 feet (2,86m) tall

Really cool vampy! Love the hands + wings and feet.
About the /dad/ thing, it must be most toxic and cancerous thing in this board. That general is like the lowest tier random trolling chat in this site. If you post your stuff there you will immediately make that thread to have some value at least, lol. You're a very polite and educated poster, so, I dunno how you will manage those retards without getting into their trolling mindset.
But if you need feedback interaction have at it, whatever it helps to keep you engaged in your art motivation is good. If you don't like it, you can go back to your own thread anytime.

i feel that i still need a lot of practice with hair, but i really wanted to draw a sabertooth 'cause i think they are real cool. lots of lion references, and i feel pretty good about it, though i think i want to try to draw one with a ridgeback instead next time. it was real good practice even if the image isnt perfect!
